Expecting Sega to mention the game again right now would be stupid, but a few years ago it was selling really well weekly (according to VGC) and it's really strange that Sega said nothing at all especially when it sold 33k first month in the US...and just decided to put the series on the PSP, totally ignoring the PS3.
For the record I don't think VC is the only RPG overtracked here. Just selling 1 mil makes it highly suspect compared to the others. I know the game sold well but 1 mil is ridiculous, sorry.

doesn't that fit the bill exactly to what you meant? Few years ago it had a surge and they mentioned it.

Yes and no. In that article they say the game has reached "tens of thousands of brand new homes,". This is still a huge far cry from the 650k VGC has for the Americas, even if we're saying from then up till now. Yes the game had a surge...but not one that made it sell several hundred thousand copies extra. That's just too hard to swallow.

that was tens of thousands in a month, and since then it has been 2 years. I think you're really underestimating how long a game can sell little bits. You don't think that after selling tens of thousands in a month it shot down to nothing do you? The only evidence I've seen to the contrary is that Sega hasn't mentioned it which is neither here nor there since I haven't seen any mention of them for old games in the financial reports I've read through, and that supposed leak from NPD which was proven wrong on a similar title before when Atlus put out shipment numbers for Demon's Souls. So for now I'll just go with VGC's numbers until I see some actual credible reason not to.
